I actually had no idea that Adobe has been working with so much HTML5-related technology, but Flash still really has to go for 99 percent of the web.

I think you are saying it’s inappropriate 99% of the time. If so, I agree.

(But if you are alluding to Adobe’s frequent claims of a 99% install base, my own stats indicate that only 95% of visitors have Flash 9 or newer installed.)

And the “Adobe doesn’t fully support HTML5” meme is hardly a canard: http://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1265967771&count=1

The operative here is "with" (compared to the title's "for"). There are a few clear exceptions though (jQuery, TypeKit, etc).

It seems that Adobe wants to be prepared for the future, big +1 for contributing to jQuery Mobile.
